2 year old Ravenheat condensing boiler... hot water cuts in and out. The boiler can be heard firing up and the water starts to come hot... then the boiler can be heard to cut out... and it goes cold.
This problem has been getting worse over the past few weeks. Initially, the boiler would only cut out a couple of times and then a nice long shower could be taken.... then I learned to switch the shower on for about 5 mins before I wanted to get in it and it would be ok..... now I spend half my time stood at the other end of the bath, hair full of shampoo, freezing cold, whilst I wait for the boiler to kick back in and I can step back under the shower to rinse off.
It's really not funny anymore!
Any ideas what's causing the problem and is it something that could be fixed by a girl with fairly competent DIY skills?
